Description

Rosa DeLuca, grief-stricken over the loss of her husband, Henry, became a volunteer at Willow Brook. She hoped that spending time learning about the beautiful Victorian mansion and the family who had once lived there would help her focus on anything other than her late husband's long, horrible battle with cancer. After some initial jitters, Rosa completed her training, started leading tours and made new friends. But soon, to Rosa's dismay, constant bickering among the museum staff and volunteers seemed to be getting out of hand. No one realized just how out of hand until Rosa made a grisly discovery one morning. Homicide Detective Gene Statton, a big man with an even bigger heart, arrived at the scene to unravel the mystery. The victim's body was in such a decomposed state that Gene called in Dr. Jennifer Davis, a forensics entomologist at the local university, who used insects to help pinpoint the time of death. Jenny's meticulous work provided clues to help solve the murder, and their growing friendship helped Gene cope with a frustrating case. After the victim's identity was established, Gene found shortage of suspects. He had to use his charm, easy-going personality and highly observant nature to glean clues from the unpredictable and often uncooperative suspects. Although the investigation would be trying, Gene would forge new relationships, and in the process, learn more about himself.
